HCG and test?

I've read a lot of differing opinions on this and wanted to hear what you guys had to say. My current cycle has me taking test p every day with HCG every 4th week. Why would one run HCG while they're doing test? Seems to me that it should be run after the test cycle is complete. Is there a specific reason why we would want to run them both together?

Yes, running test shuts down your own testosterone production. LH and FSH levels decease (these are pituitary hormones that signal the testes to produce testosterone) because your body senses it has testosterone and doesn't need any more produced. LH and FSH act on the Leydig cells in the testes. If the Leydig cells go unstimulated for an extended period, they COULD be less responsive to LH and FSH.

Enter HCG... HCG acts as LH and stimulates the Leydig cells so they do not become shut down. It keeps your testes working while on cycle. Then, when you come off cycle, it is much easier for your testes to rebound fully since they have been getting a stimulus throughout the cycle and it won't take them long to produce a healthy level of testosterone again.

Ok so would it be ideal to run HCG for a couple weeks after running both? While on PCT?

You're about to get 20 different answers. But yes I run hcg for 2 weeks while on pct but everyone's body is different key to pct is finding what works best for you.

I hear ya. Just makes more sense to my brain to run it for a little bit after the cycle but what do I know. I'm just a dumb meathead.

I am on TRT, so I keep HCG in year round or else I would never even have a chance of having kids... But if I did come off, I would do what Phoe does

Keep in mind that HCG can cause a rise in estrogen while using it. So, if you're running it during a cycle and are sensitive to estrogen sides, be sure to have an AI on hand to mitigate the increased estrogen level.

this is a little off topic but anyone out there ever try the opioid antagonist or blocker or whatnot, naloxone or something...supposed to prevent the brain from ever lowering LH and FSH in the first place...mixed review last time I ever read anything...I know I should use the search function but my computer is slow right now from all the porn
